Q7. The pressure is 1642 bar and 1 meter below the surface of a
water-filled tank is: what is the density?
h = 3 m
g = 9.81 m/ s2
°K = °C + 273°,/ P1 T2 = P2 T1,/ Q= (M) X (Cp) x (AT),/ P
=p xh x g
°C = oK – 273,/ °C 5/9 x (°F- 32),/ °F = 32° + 9/5
°C,/ PE = m x g x h,/ Ek = ½ mv2
A vessel has absolute pressure of 3MPa and temperature of 40°C. Assuming there is no change in vessel volume. Calculate temperature if the absolute pressure in the vessel increase to 5.8MPa.
Please answer in SI unit (even temperature) with no decimals.
An iron bar is at 237 degrees Fahrenheit. What is the equivalent temperature in Celsius?
